Multiple option prices

[cadfc]

I'm trying to figure out whether zen-cart attribute controller supports prices from two selected option could be multipled together rather than added. Is this possible? If so how?

My company sells assembled cables and I would like to give the clients opportunity to customize their order online.

For example.

Option Name
Cable Type

Option Value
Cable 1 ($0.5)
Cable 2 ($0.7)
Cable 2 ($0.9)

Option Name
Length

Option Value
0.5 ($0.5)(in meter but price is set as $0.5 so this value could be multipled with cable type)
1.0 ($1.0)
2.0 ($2.0) etc

There is other way but it involves alot of option values, removing Cable Type option and use length to cover all possiblities for example.

Option Name
Length

Option Value
Cable 1 0.5m ($0.25)
Cable 2 0.5m ($0.35)
Cable 3 0.5m ($0.45)
Cable 1 1.0m ($0.5)
Cable 2 1.0m ($0.7)
Cable 3 1.0m ($0.9) etc

Problem with this second plan is we use at least 6 cable types and length can be ranged from 0.5m to 90m!

If Zen-cart doesn't support multiple prices between two options and if you know a better approach, please enlighten me. many thanks

This is not an option in Zen Cart at this time ...

You could split the Cable Type into different Products and then you just have the Length to contend with on the pricing ...

Ajeh,

Ok thank for quick reply, I hope price multiple idea is adding to wish list.

It could be flexible for example give a developer to select which option names to be multipled but to be added with the rest of option names.

Suppose if I've Option name A,B,C,D,E. I want A's price to be multipled with B's price and then added with C,D and E's prices.
